“The topic of today's sectoral session is also inspired by the Prime Minister's idea in which he said that tourism should be a medium to connect the country's economy and society. Our government also aims to provide better employment and business opportunities to every section of the society,” she said.

The Rising Rajasthan Investment Global Summit was inaugurated with great pomp on Monday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated this summit. Prime Minister in his address described tourism as synonymous with Rajasthan and also mentioned the tourism specialty of Rajasthan in his address.
